-Kokoa:
" I don't know my parents and I think that this is pretty simple since most of you don't know them as well. It was snowing and freezing. I was still a kid! I don't have a family. I don't have a house. It was just me against a whole world. It was snowing at that day and i didn't have the ability to move any longer which led to becoming immobile. I kept standing and the snow started elevating more and more, it almost covered my whole body. That day, I really was ready to accpet it, I already accepted it! Just when I closed my eyes, someone came by. He noticed that I was there. I tried to raise my head so I can look at him but i wasn't able to do so since the cold took place in my veins as well. He took me in his arms and hugged me just like that. It wasn't that warm for sure. But the warmth I felt that moment was immaginable. It wasn't the warmth of his coat nor his body's temperature that made me feel comfortable. I felt the warmth in my little heart and soul. That cold frozen ice just melted and returned to life. He took in his arms and started walking to his house. On our way, he said some words that I would never forget.
-???: What is a cutie like you doing here all alone? Where are your parents?
-Kokoa:I don't have parents.
-???: I see! This makes it easier to understand the situation. So tell me young lady, what's your name?
-Kokoa: I don't have a name.
-???: I guess it's complicated after all!
-???: May I have the honor to give you a name?
-Kokoa: .......
-???: No response means yes! Let's see! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
-???: What about Kokoa? It's a lovely name just like it's owner!
-Shinra: My name is Shinra! I have a wife that is waiting for me! I'm sure she'll like you just like I did.
-Shinra: You're a broken little kid aren't you! Does it upset you to be cold, broken? Does it upset you to face the danger and death all on your own without finding someone to lean on? That's good and really good! Keep this feelings in your heart and incinerate the flame of your dreams of ambitions! Kepp holding those feelings in your soul! It's means that YOU won't give up to this world!!!
After hearing those words, I felt even warmer. It was the first time that someone spoke to me like that. It was the first time that I smiled to someone. I was the first time that I felt, that, I'm alive!
We reached his house, It's simple and made by woods but it looked really big from the outside! We entered it and It was really warm and so bright compared to the dark night outside. He kept calling for his wife saying that he brought something to her. After some minutes she came.
-???: Sorry I was preparing dinner! What is? Who is this girl?
-Shinra: I found her outside covered with ice! Look at the poor thing! Is it okay if you give her a warm bath Chiyo?
-Chiyo: Of course honey! Come her girly! What's your name? Oh she's really cold!

-Shinra: She told me that she doesn't have a name! I named her Kokoa!
Chiyo was so happy when she saw me and I wasn't expecting that! She gave me the first warm bath that I ever had. It falt really good for me! After that, they gave me a warm dinner as well! Shinra feeded me some soup with meat! We lived together just like I was their child flesh and blood. Chiyo didn't have magic energy but Shinra had fire magic and no sacred weapon. I dicovered after that that he was the captain of the millitary tha takes care of the demonic portals. The gave love, warmth, hapiness. I even started smiling all the days, can you beleive it? And not only that. Chiyo was a real real close friend to her majesty Ms. Ashide. Shiyo is her maid but it didn't feel like that. Sometimes she takes me with her to the castle and it felt like she's hanging with the queen more than serving her highness! Ms. Ashide liked me as well and my family extended even more. I don't remember my birthday even now. But we celebrated my birthday on the day Shinra found me and it's "4th October". I was really happy.
Shinra was a master of hand to hand combat and he trained me some really good moves. He was a father, a friend, a teacher. Shinra was wholesome. Chiyo was wholesome. Until that day, I heard her majesty talking with Chiyo.
-Chiyo: What do you think about Kokoa?
-Ashide: I really like her from the bottom of my heart! She will be a splendid woman in the future just like her mother.
-Chiyo: Thank you for this compliment Ms. Ashide! Forgive me for my rudness but I want to ask your majety a favor if I may!
-Ashide: Proceed!
-Chiyo: If anything happens to me or Shinra, please take care of Kokoa! Tke care of our daughter!
I wasn't able to hear the whole conversation since those words hit me real hard. That day, I discovered that Chiyo had some weird illnessand her last days are counted. At that day as well, I discovered my powers. I was sitting next to Ms. Ashide while she was working for a plan to protect her kingdom even more.
-Ashide: Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh! This much more complicated than what it looks like.
-Kokoa: May I have a look?
-Ashide while putting Kokoa on her laps: Sure thing lady!
-Ashide: Here you see those circles?
-Kokoa: Yes I know them! They are magic circle that serve for shielding, right ?
-Ashide got shocked: Y-yes! Yes that's right! I guess you know this part then. I want to sheild the whole kingdom with my magic but it's a really big area to cover and it drains magic so fast!
-Kokoa: You shouldn't do it like that it will never work and even if you were able to sheild the whold kingdom, the sheild will be so weak and you won't do nothing because your mana isn't suffisant!
-Ashide getting even more shocked: Then what should I do?
-Kokoa: Make a restriction to the sheild circle and connect it with rune stones! This way you'll have a limtless source of magic energy!!
-Ashide:.....................
-Kokoa: And you'll need only 6 runes to do so!
-Ashide: No way!!!!! I need to tell your mother about that!

Her majesty took me to the kitchen where mom is located, she told her about what happened and then she applied the spell on me just like that one she used on you Nobu! They discovered that my power is "Ultra-intelligence"
Just like that I discovered that I'm the smartest being in the existence and since we know the queen of our kingdom very well, she helped me with her own knowledge and helped as well. We lived happily for 3 whole years. That's when i became 10 years old. One day, father went on a mission with his team to shut down a an underworld portal and it's demons. We waited for one month. 2 months. Half a year. That's when we knew that all of the millitary was murdered! All of them. It was really painful for me! The one who accepted you the most dies and you have nothing to do for it. It's hurt and things turn out to be even worse. I was in the castle and on my way home, I found my Shiyo up the roof.
-Shiyo: OH here you are Kokoa! Welcome home!
-Kokoa: S-Shiyo? Don't do what i'm afraid of!
-Shiyo: You really are the smartest!
Shiyo sits down and then starts crying and that's when I started running and went up the roof next to her as well. When I tried to pull her to me, she stood up and turned to me while holding a knife.
-Kokoa:Shiyo just stop it please!!!!!! There is nothing that you'll get from this!
-Shiyo:I want him! I. I want to be with him! Forever! I love him!
-Kokoa: You don't even know if he's dead or transformed into a demons! There are endless possibilities Shiyo! Please think a little more before rushing to actions like that.
I was trying to get closer to her, but she holded the knife at me which means that she didn't want me to help her. The only thing in her mind was finding her husband in the afterlife that's all. But she was crying so hard it was terrible to watch it!
-Shiyo: We consider you as our daughter! You ARE our daughter and we love you so much Kokoa! Even her highness considers you a family! Sooner or later, I was going to die in no time and you know about that as well. So what's the point in staying alive when I know that my day is close!
-Kokoa: But! But I need you!
-Shiyo while trying to clear her voice: And I need him more!!!!
-Kokoa: MOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!
She put the knife inside her neck and then she felt down. Just like that, she suicided, for her lover! It felt painful for me, I was happy with them. Wht does things turn out to be more terrible???
I didn't let all of that disturb me from reaching my goal. I studied so hard and became a strategist and i became able to weild any type of weapon. After that, I asked her highness Ms. Ahisde to let me join the anti-portal millitary. And she gave me the right to do so! I fought against evil to protect humanity and I encountered death so many times, but I didin't give up! Because I know giving up is a sign of weakness! Even if I can't stand anymore, as long as I have the fighting spirit, I will die in the battlefield honored!
One day, a demon portal that is stronger than the others started to appear! We made ourselves ready to counter it! All the soldiers took their places and all of us satyed looking at that purple portal to make it's move! It wasn't a portal! At that moment, I knew how dad died! It was because of a portal that exploded just like this one. I was still conscious. I looked at my body. I looked at the rest of my body. All the soldiers that were with me died. I wasn't able to feel their magic anymore and I thought that I'll be joining them in no time. However, a demonic spirit came next while he was laughing at my pathetic state. He came next to me.
-???: Just like the other team! You did fall for the same trick!!!!
-Kokoa: It's you! you are the one who killed my dad !!!
-???: Your dad? Hahahahahahaha! Only your dad? Sorry to inform you but I can't do these kind of things even with my physical body.
-Kokoa: What do you want from me? Do you want to make a contract ?
-???: Aren't you a smart girl???? Yes I want to make a contract with you!!! I will heal your body which means that you'll stay alive!
-Kokoa: In exchange for what ?
-???: First you'll use your humanity!!! Second, you'll use your element! And third, I WILL LIVE INSIDE YOU AS WELL!!!!!!!!
No one would accept such a contract. But I was afraid! I was afraid of death! All what I want at that terrible moment, was to live a little bit longer!
-Kokoa while holding her tears: Yes I accept just do it!
-???:Good choice!!!!!!"
-Kokoa: Our bodies got united. The missing parts in my body got healed but with demon flesh just like you see! I don't have my ultra intelligence anymore! That's why I am not a human and not a demon as well! That's why my eyes doesn't look the same!
_Kokoa starts crying in front of the others! They feel really sorry for such a story. Even though she's crying, she still tries to continue her words._
-Kokoa:All what I want is to live apply again! I know that there is no helping it for my humanity! But I want to take back my powers. I want to take back my ultra intelligence that's all! I wanted to stay away from you to protect YOU! So you won't get hurt like dad and mom!
-Nobu: For me, if I get hurt while trying to help one of my family members, it will make me happier! You know why? Because that's how I know that I shared the pain with it's real owner!
_Kokoa raises her head and looks directly to Nobu. He stands up and puts his hands on his shoulders to make her feel a little better._
-Nobu: Now it's only up to you! KOKOA! Do you want to be one of us?
-Kokoa: I'll gladly be! Thank you for listening to me!

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!

Killstealer
Unfinished - Apologies to anyone who was reading but I have no current intentions to revisit this story Alex was stuck in a rut: He was nearing thirty, and his career seemed to be going no-where; He used to have plenty of friends at university, but had gradually lost touch with them. He had recently started using a dating site, but truthfully he never quite got over his ex. It could be worse; he didn't spend his nights wallowing in self pity. However, he had a sinking feeling that his life was going no-where fast. When Alex decided to take up an old hobby all he really was looking for was something fun to do on friday nights. Thrust into another world by a mad mage Alex must adapt quickly to survive. Unfortunately, Alex showed up late to game night and ends up stuck with a pretty mediocre character in this game like reality. Alex must learn to survive in this new world; just because it all seems like a giant game doesn't make death any less terrifying. This will be my first attempt at writing litrpg. I wanted to set myself the challenge of writing every week and I think knowing people might be reading it will motivate me. I've always worked much better with external deadlines. FAQ Why should I read this LitRPG? I am writing because I enjoy it and you should read it if you enjoy it. If I had to make an elevator pitch I would start off by saying my MC is a rogue type character, which seems a relatively uncommon character at least based on what I have read. I also strive to make the supporting cast three dimensional characters, and not just caricatures. Finally, I can't forget that this is a LitRPG so I have tried to make a RPG system with depth, and one that makes sense. How often will you release chapters? At least once a week is my goal. I am a nurse with a baby at home, so between my hospital and my baby I won't have time for more unless something dramatically changes. Will there be romance? I won't rule it out as I try to let my characters write their own stories. However, there will NEVER be a harem, it just isn't something I am interested in. Gore, Profanity, and Traumatising Content? I don't intend to have any of these present at obscene levels, but my tolerance might be different to yours. The tags are mostly there to cover me.

Magicat
Our main character (a cat) adventures with his friends and encounters many situations.Author's Note:Hello. This is my first story. Though I hesitate to call it such. It is supposed to be relatively relaxed for the most part. Any constructive criticism is welcome. My updates will be slower than a snail and my chapters are relatively short so deal with it please and don't murder me. Romance should come in later. Thank you~
